Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Director Yeom Seung-Hwan from LS Securities
Q: Why did Korean interest in stocks spike so much in 2026?
The spike was driven by sharp stock price increases, very active individual investors, and the appeal of a favorable real estate alternative; the conversation highlights how rising prices create a feedback loop of FOMO and increased participation.
Director Yeom Seung-Hwan from LS Securities
Q: You've also published three books this year alone. How long have you been involved in the stock market?
I've been in the stock market since 2005, about 20 years now, and it started after my early exposure during army service and the IT bubble era; it evolved from hobby to career over time.
You Ji-suk, Master Singer of Seodo Sori(Folk Song of the Western Provinces)
Q: Why did you choose Seodo Sori among other traditional forms?
My choice stemmed from family influence—my mother from Hwanghaedo and my father from Gwangwon-do—combined with a lifelong attraction to the emotional depth and vibration specific to Seodo Sori, which resonated with me since childhood.
You Ji-suk, Master Singer of Seodo Sori(Folk Song of the Western Provinces)
Q: Could you tell us more about the Seodo Sori?
Seodo Sori is the sound of the Hwanghae and Pyongan regions, characterized by deep vibrato and emotional expression that reflects historical struggles of the people from that area; it uses instruments like the janggu and centers on Susimga as a foundational track.
Jo Bee Yun, Research Fellow at the Sejong Institute
Q: What is a major factor driving ongoing defense investment in Korea?
The proximity of North Korea and the need to deter aggression while maintaining self-sufficiency in defense capabilities have sustained a policy of continuous development and export readiness.
